Abstract
The photoemissive materials presently used or envisaged in gaseous cou nters, especially for RICH detectors, are reviewed. General properties of solid, liquid and gas photocathodes are presented, with special in terest in the effect of an adsorbed layer. The quantum efficiency of i norganic, organic and organometallic compounds in the UV range, togeth er with their practical interest, is discussed.
